How to Stay Fit Through The Holidays

from The Catalyst

The holidays don’t have to derail your fitness—you just need a maintenance plan. In this 10-minute quickcast, Chris shows you how to set simple floors so your progress survives December without skipping the fun. You’ll learn the four non-negotiables: a protein floor (25–40 g at two meals), a movement floor (6–8k steps or a 10-minute post-meal walk), a training floor (two 20–30 minute full-body lifts each week), and a sleep floor (consistent bedtime/wake time). Get clear event-day rules—eat protein and veg first, pick dessert or drinks (not both), alternate water, and walk after big meals. We include two fast, full-body workouts you can run in 25 minutes and a no-gym EMOM-15 template for travel. Then use the Monday Reset: shop once, prep six protein portions, and book two lift slots right away. If you miss a day, don’t miss twice; if time is tight, half a workout counts. Hold the floor, enjoy the season, and hit January already moving.
